New to Provari - few questions

[MG1963]

Hi all. Just received my Provari and am loving it, but I have a few questions. Should I leave the extra batteries in the charger once they are charged or store them elsewhere until I need them? Also, when I fly, can I bring my Provari/batteries/charger in my carry on or put them in my checked baggage? Thanks!

I would carry with me or pack good.Take the batteries out of charger when green though it won't hurt if you don't.I have left mine in they don't even get warm.

Take your ProVari with you, but don't pack it in checked baggage. I've only been flagged for further search once (most TSA agents know about ecigs by now), but if you've checked your bags, you won't be there to explain what it is.

BTW, you cannot check bags with batteries unless they're isolated in an approved case. I take those in my carry on, too.

I've had my ProVari all over the country and never had a problem. Last time I was through Kennedy (in New York) one of the TSA agents tested the nicotine fluid, then called another agent over so I could explain the e-cig to him. He's a smoker. I demonstrated it, talked about juices, talked about variable voltage and how it plays into it, and dispelled the myth about antifreeze in nicotine juice (he asked).

Contact lens solution, on the other hand, turns out to be the latest threat to national security. Don't insist on clean contacts during your trip, or the terrorists will win.

always babysit your batts while charging....if you search battery fires or explosions you will see the dangers... these AW IMR really are the safest technology....but the stories on here are horrific so just be smart....

As soon as my batteries are done charging I pull them out and store them in a battery case.

I would never leave my batteries in the charger.

Thanks to everyone for their input, I really appreciate it. I think I will pick up a battery case this week!
